motorcycle guys - Victory Cycles?

Anyone know anything about Victory Cycles? Are they good bikes (i.e. do they last, any know issues, etc.)?

Victory motorcycles are made by Polaris. The company is based out of Northern Iowa. Its a very nice bike. Before I purchased my Harley I considered buying a Victory.

I have a buddy that has one from the first year they came out. I dont think that he would ever get another brand.
He Loves it!!!

I did my studying on the Victory but there wasnt enough infomation available. So I went for the more expensive, proven Harley. I am still happy...
The resale value is better on the Harley and so is the wait. I had to wait over 5 months to get the model I wanted.......

The only problem that he had was getting it, They pushed back the production on it a couple of times, He was'nt too happy about that.

The good think about his bike is that it one of the first x amount made so it a "numbered" bike.

The insurance company would have to pay out more becasue of that if anything would happen to it.
